313 @Somerset Launches Location Based Mobile App - Tring 313!

SINGAPORE. November 29, 2012 – With nine out of 10 consumers having made
an online purchase the past year (source : Visa e-Commerce Consumer Monitor
2012, in collaboration with TNS), 313@somerset’s timely launch of Tring
313 is set to capitalise on the growing trend of online shopping. Tring
313 is a location based mobile application (app) complete with a payment
gateway; shoppers will receive relevant promotions where and when they
want it with the ability to shop round the clock as the app will tailor
alerts to their personal profiles and preferences.

Tring 313 is designed to send push notifications to shoppers within a 500
metres proximity of the mall, informing of current promotions and event
highlights. Shoppers can also choose to “follow” selected brands in 313@somerset
which will allow them to receive notifications of the brands’ promotions
even when they are outside the defined proximity. The technology is advanced
and provides a personal approach to shoppers’ preferences as the App identifies
relevant promotions, offers and events just for them based on previous
purchase patterns and profile information.

The ease of in-app navigation, coupled with its capability to draw on individual
shoppers’ trends and historical data will redefine the way 313 will connect
with its shoppers. Here's screenshot of how it looks like when in the App.

“Consumer behaviour is constantly evolving and re-shaping the ways in
which they consider and make purchases. Tring 313 provides us the opportunity
to leverage cutting edge technology to provide a rich and personalized
shopping experience for our digitally savvy shoppers,” says Ms Amy Lim,
General Manager of 313@somerset.
